“…Paecilomyces maximus is known as Paecilomyces formosus (Nandika et al 2021), it was reported in 2023 as a lignivorous fungus of Cedar in Morocco (Chauiyakh, Fahime, et al 2023b), and in 2021 as the causal agent of rubberwood (Hevea brasiliensis) in Palembang, South Sumatra Province, Indonesia (Nandika et al 2021), as well as in Turkey and Iran as the causal agent of Pistachio dieback in more than 400,000 hectares of Iranian pistachio orchards. This disease is characterised by dieback of twigs and branches, necrosis and darkening of bark and wood tissues, gummosis, and canker lesions of Pistacia vera L. (Heidarian et al 2018; Ozan et al 2022). The genus Alternaria is renowned for its pathogenicity (Lakshmi Prasad et al 2020; Kumar et al 2022).…”

In Morroco, Cedarwood lignivorous fungi cause significant damage to cedar groves. The losses have been estimated to be more than 30% due to these fungi. This latter brings about two primary diseases known as M'jej and Saboune. The study tries to show the molecular identification of the lignivorous fungi of the Atlas cedar in the cedar groves of Tazekka and Azrou and their biological control by the essential oils extracted from both the healthy and infected cedarwood. Therefore, this molecular research has identified three phytopathogenic fungi:(Paecilomyces maximus, Pleurostoma richardsiae, and Alternaria tenuissima). The data analysed in this study has also confirmed that the oil extracted from Saboune-infected wood showed a noticeable fungistatic effect against these fungi, with a MIC reaching 1/500, followed by the EO extracted from M'jej-infected wood. However, the healthy cedarwood gave an EO without antifungal activity. A mixture of these three oils gave significant antifungal results.

“…The canker complex is one of the major causes of signi cant crop loss to pistachio orchards. To date, a large number of pathogenic fungi have been characterized as the cause of canker disease on pistachio trees globally (Armengol et Ozan et al, 2022). Moreover, there are few reports on the bacterial cause of pistachio canker (dieback) in Australia (Edwards and Taylor 1997;Facelli et al, 2002;Facelli et al, 2005).…”

Pistachio (Pistacia vera L.) is a perennial woody plant that produces edible seeds with a high nutritional value. Canker disease is one of the important diseases of pistachio, causing considerable loss globally. During 2019-2021, a series of symptoms, including tree weakness, brown to black lesions, canker, and exudation of black sap were observed on the trunk of pistachio trees from different regions of Lorestan province, western Iran. Bacterial isolation resulted in the development of uniform and yellow colonies on yeast-extract peptone glucose agar (YPGA) medium 24 hours post-inoculation (hpi). The colonies were then puri ed on YPGA and yeast-extract-dextrose-calcium-carbonate agar (YDC). Based on the analysis of morphological, biochemical, and molecular characteristics using nucleotide sequences of the gyrB, infB, atpD, and 16S rRNA, a putative pathogen was identi ed as Pantoea agglomerans (formerly Enterobacter agglomerans). To ful ll Koch's postulates, bacterial suspensions (10 7 CFU/ml) were inoculated to one-yearold pistachio seedlings. Thirty days after inoculation, small necrotic lesions developed on the bark in the vicinity of inoculation sites, followed by brown necrotic streaks in the inner bark. Subsequently, the bacterial strains exhibiting the characteristic colony morphology were retrieved from lesions on inoculated pistachio seedlings and veri ed as P. agglomerans. To the best of our knowledge, this is the rst report on the occurrence of pistachio canker caused by P. agglomerans.
